filter_refs(): delete matched refs from sought list

Remove any references that are available from the remote from the
sought list (rather than overwriting their names with NUL characters,
as previously). Mark matching entries by writing a non-NULL pointer
to string_list_item::util during the iteration, then use
filter_string_list() later to filter out the entries that have been
marked.

Document this aspect of fetch_pack() in a comment in the header file.
(More documentation is obviously still needed.)

fetch_pack(): update sought->nr to reflect number of unique entries

fetch_pack() removes duplicates from the "sought" list, thereby
shrinking the list. But previously, the caller was not informed about
the shrinkage. This would cause a spurious error message to be
emitted by cmd_fetch_pack() if "git fetch-pack" is called with
duplicate refnames.

Instead, remove duplicates using string_list_remove_duplicates(),
which adjusts sought->nr to reflect the new length of the list.

The last test of t5500 inexplicably *required* "git fetch-pack" to
fail when fetching a list of references that contains duplicates;
i.e., it insisted on the buggy behavior. So change the test to expect
the correct behavior.

filter_refs(): do not check the same sought_pos twiceMichael Haggerty Sun, 9 Sep 2012 06:19:41 +0000 (08:19 +0200)

filter_refs(): do not check the same sought_pos twice

Once a match has been found at sought_pos, the entry is zeroed and no
future attempts will match that entry. So increment sought_pos to
avoid checking against the zeroed-out entry during the next iteration.

Change fetch_pack() and friends to take string_list arguments

Instead of juggling <nr_heads,heads> (sometimes called
<nr_match,match>), pass around the list of references to be sought in
a single string_list variable called "sought". Future commits will
make more use of string_list functionality.

t5500: add tests of fetch-pack --all --depth=N $URL $REF

Document some bugs in "git fetch-pack":

1. If "git fetch-pack" is called with "--all", "--depth", and an
explicit existing non-tag reference to fetch, then it falsely reports
that the reference was not found, even though it was fetched
correctly.

2. If "git fetch-pack" is called with "--all", "--depth", and an
explicit existing tag reference to fetch, then it segfaults in
filter_refs() because return_refs is used without having been
initialized.

string_list: add two new functions for splitting strings

Add two new functions, string_list_split() and
string_list_split_in_place(). These split a string into a string_list
on a separator character. The first makes copies of the substrings
(leaving the input string untouched) and the second splits the
original string in place, overwriting the separator characters with
NULs and referring to the original string's memory.

These functions are similar to the strbuf_split_*() functions except
that they work with the more powerful string_list interface.

branch -v: align even when branch names are in UTF-8Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy Sat, 25 Aug 2012 18:17:12 +0000 (01:17 +0700)

branch -v: align even when branch names are in UTF-8

Branch names are usually in ASCII so they are not the problem. The
problem most likely comes from "(no branch)" translation, which is
in UTF-8 and makes display-width calculation just wrong. Clarify
this by renaming the field "len" in struct ref_item to "width", as
it stores the display-width and is used to compute the width of the
screen needed to show the names of all the branches, and compute the
display width using utf8_strwidth(), not byte-length with strlen().

Update document to mention the fact that we may want ref names in
UTF-8. Encodings that produce invalid UTF-8 are safe as utf8_strwidth()
falls back to strlen(). The ones that incidentally produce valid UTF-8
sequences will cause misalignment.

http: prompt for credentials on failed POSTJeff King Mon, 27 Aug 2012 13:27:15 +0000 (09:27 -0400)

http: prompt for credentials on failed POST

All of the smart-http GET requests go through the http_get_*
functions, which will prompt for credentials and retry if we
see an HTTP 401.

POST requests, however, do not go through any central point.
Moreover, it is difficult to retry in the general case; we
cannot assume the request body fits in memory or is even
seekable, and we don't know how much of it was consumed
during the attempt.

Most of the time, this is not a big deal; for both fetching
and pushing, we make a GET request before doing any POSTs,
so typically we figure out the credentials during the first
request, then reuse them during the POST. However, some
servers may allow a client to get the list of refs from
receive-pack without authentication, and then require
authentication when the client actually tries to POST the
pack.

This is not ideal, as the client may do a non-trivial amount
of work to generate the pack (e.g., delta-compressing
objects). However, for a long time it has been the
recommended example configuration in git-http-backend(1) for
setting up a repository with anonymous fetch and
authenticated push. This setup has always been broken
without putting a username into the URL. Prior to commit
986bbc0, it did work with a username in the URL, because git
would prompt for credentials before making any requests at
all. However, post-986bbc0, it is totally broken. Since it
has been advertised in the manpage for some time, we should
make sure it works.

Unfortunately, it is not as easy as simply calling post_rpc
again when it fails, due to the input issue mentioned above.
However, we can still make this specific case work by
retrying in two specific instances:

1. If the request is large (bigger than LARGE_PACKET_MAX),
we will first send a probe request with a single flush
packet. Since this request is static, we can freely
retry it.

2. If the request is small and we are not using gzip, then
we have the whole thing in-core, and we can freely
retry.

That means we will not retry in some instances, including:

1. If we are using gzip. However, we only do so when
calling git-upload-pack, so it does not apply to
pushes.

2. If we have a large request, the probe succeeds, but
then the real POST wants authentication. This is an
extremely unlikely configuration and not worth worrying
about.

While it might be nice to cover those instances, doing so
would be significantly more complex for very little
real-world gain. In the long run, we will be much better off
when curl learns to internally handle authentication as a
callback, and we can cleanly handle all cases that way.

http: factor out http error code handling

Most of our http requests go through the http_request()
interface, which does some nice post-processing on the
results. In particular, it handles prompting for missing
credentials as well as approving and rejecting valid or
invalid credentials. Unfortunately, it only handles GET
requests. Making it handle POSTs would be quite complex, so
let's pull result handling code into its own function so
that it can be reused from the POST code paths.

t: test http access to "half-auth" repositories

Some sites set up http access to repositories such that
fetching is anonymous and unauthenticated, but pushing is
authenticated. While there are multiple ways to do this, the
technique advertised in the git-http-backend manpage is to
block access to locations matching "/git-receive-pack$".

Let's emulate that advice in our test setup, which makes it
clear that this advice does not actually work.

We do not currently test authentication over smart-http at

complex tests in future patches.

t/lib-httpd: recognize */smart/* repos as smart-http

We do not currently test authentication for smart-http repos
at all. Part of the infrastructure to do this is recognizing
that auth/smart is indeed a smart-http repo.

The current apache config recognizes only "^/smart/*" as
smart-http. Let's instead treat anything with /smart/ in the
URL as smart-http. This is obviously a stupid thing to do
for a real production site, but for our test suite we know
that our repositories will not have this magic string in the
name.

Note that we will route /foo/smart/bar.git directly to
git-http-backend/bar.git; in other words, everything before
the "/smart/" is irrelevant to finding the repo on disk (but
may impact apache config, for example by triggering auth
checks).

t/lib-httpd: only route auth/dumb to dumb repos

Our test apache config points all of auth/ directly to the
on-disk repositories via an Alias directive. This works fine
because everything authenticated is currently in auth/dumb,
which is a subset. However, this would conflict with a
ScriptAlias for auth/smart (which will come in future
patches), so let's narrow the Alias.

t5550: factor out http auth setupJeff King Mon, 27 Aug 2012 13:24:31 +0000 (09:24 -0400)

t5550: factor out http auth setup

The t5550 script sets up a nice askpass helper for
simulating user input and checking what git prompted for.
Let's make it available to other http scripts by migrating
it to lib-httpd.

We can use this immediately in t5540 to make our tests more
robust (previously, we did not check at all that hitting the
password-protected repo actually involved a password).
Unfortunately, we end up failing the test because the
current code erroneously prompts twice (once for
git-remote-http, and then again when the former spawns
git-http-push).

More importantly, though, it will let us easily add
smart-http authentication tests in t5541 and t5551; we
currently do not test smart-http authentication at all.

As part of making it generic, let's always look for and
store auxiliary askpass files at the top-level trash
directory; this makes it compatible with t5540, which runs
some tests from sub-repositories. We can abstract away the
ugliness with a short helper function.

t5550: put auth-required repo in auth/dumb

In most of our tests, we put repos to be accessed by dumb
protocols in /dumb, and repos to be accessed by smart
protocols in /smart. In our test apache setup, the whole
/auth hierarchy requires authentication. However, we don't
bother to split it by smart and dumb here because we are not
currently testing smart-http authentication at all.

That will change in future patches, so let's be explicit
that we are interested in testing dumb access here. This
also happens to match what t5540 does for the push tests.

apply: compute patch->def_name correctly under -p0

Back when "git apply" was written, we made sure that the user can
skip more than the default number of path components (i.e. 1) by
giving "-p<n>", but the logic for doing so was built around the
notion of "we skip N slashes and stop". This obviously does not
work well when running under -p0 where we do not want to skip any,
but still want to skip SP/HT that separates the pathnames of
preimage and postimage and want to reject absolute pathnames.

Stop using "stop_at_slash()", and instead introduce a new helper
"skip_tree_prefix()" with similar logic but works correctly even for
the -p0 case.

This is an ancient bug, but has been masked for a long time because
most of the patches are text and have other clues to tell us the
name of the preimage and the postimage.

mergetool: style fixes

This script is one of the sizeable ones that tempted people to copy
its "neibouring style" in their new code, but was littered with
styles incompatible with our style guide.

- use one tab, not four spaces, per indent level;

- long lines can be wrapped after '|', '&&', or '||' for
readability.

- structures like "if .. then .. else .. fi", "while .. do .. done"
are split into lines in such a way that does not require
unnecessary semicolon.

- case, esac and case-arms align at the same column.

specifying ranges: we did not mean to make ".." an empty set

Either end of revision range operator can be omitted to default to HEAD,
as in "origin.." (what did I do since I forked) or "..origin" (what did
they do since I forked). But the current parser interprets ".." as an
empty range "HEAD..HEAD", and worse yet, because ".." does exist on the
filesystem, we get this annoying output:

$ cd Documentation/howto
$ git log .. ;# give me recent commits that touch Documentation/ area.
fatal: ambiguous argument '..': both revision and filename
Use '--' to separate filenames from revisions

Surely we could say "git log ../" or even "git log -- .." to disambiguate,
but we shouldn't have to.
